STATUS: House Passed – Did Not Pass Senate – Dead for 2014
Sponsored by Senator Ken Yager & Rep. Bill Sanderson
Synopsis: The bill amends current TCA 4-15-102(b) to allow contracts to be executed before final completion and approval of design documents where approval and utilization of an alternative delivery method is approved by the State Building Commission, and which method provides for the award of such a contract prior to the completion of the project design.
AIA Position: This legislation is needed to reconcile statute, current SBC policy, and industry practice.
